   Shifting Spaces: Queer Nightlife in the City: Fest at the Film Fest

   Special Events, SFUFF 2017 / 180 mins

   In San Francisco, and internationally, just as L.G.B.T.Q.I.A.+ identities are seemingly becoming more accepted, cities are losing the queer bars that center women, trans folks, and people of color. This screening and party examine the social and political importance of these spaces, why they are constructed, and challenges us to reimagine new modes of building queer community space; while investigating the causes of atrition and psychological dislocation it engenders. Co-presented by Still Here SF, Lexington Club Archival Project, and the GLBT Historical Society, this night will feature performances by Still Here artists, films about the now closed Esta Noche and Lexington Club, a lively panel discussion, and DJ set by DJ Johnnycakes, who will take us through a journey of booty-shaking queer sounds and voices. So, you know, reminiscent of your best nights out at your neighborhood queer bar…. Fest at the Film Fest includes Film Screening, Performance, Panel Discussion, Light Dinner, & 2 Drink Tickets

   In This Program: Eulogy For The Dyke Bar, Never A Cover, This Night, Who is Gonna Cry For You, YBCA 100: The Stud
